CouplePacts®: How Do You Want to Show Up for Each Other?

CouplePacts®: How Do You Want to Show Up for Each Other?

Have you and your partner had the same conversation more than once?

• “We need to communicate better.”
• “Please tell me when something is bothering you.”
• “We need to stop having difficult conversations when we’re already angry.”
• “We agreed we wouldn’t do that again.”

And then life happens — and somehow, you find yourselves having the same conversation again.

Why does this happen?
Most couples don't lack good intentions.
You may already know what you want to do differently. You may have talked about it, agreed on it, and genuinely meant it.
But relationships develop patterns.
And when we're tired, stressed, hurt, defensive, or simply back in a familiar situation, knowing what we should do doesn't always help us do it.
This workshop is about exploring what is really underneath those recurring patterns and finding a different way forward.

What is a CouplePact®?
A CouplePact® is a practical, memorable agreement about how you want to show up for each other when it matters.
Instead of having the same conversation again and again, you create something you can both recognize and return to when the pattern starts to appear.
Your Pact becomes a shared reminder of what you have decided matters in your relationship — and how you want to act on it.
No blame. No relationship “rules.”
Just a different way of turning insight into something you can actually use.

What might we explore?
Maybe one of you shuts down when conflict starts and the other keeps pushing.
Maybe something bothers you, but you wait until you've built up resentment.
Maybe one person wants solutions while the other simply wants to be heard.
Maybe you both want to give each other more space, communicate earlier, or handle disagreements differently.
The workshop helps you look at these moments with curiosity rather than blame and ask:
What is really happening here?
And how do we want to handle it differently next time?
The experience
This is a two-part workshop.

PART 1 — Monday: Explore
We'll meet as a group for a guided Humanity Tiles® experience.
You'll explore the situations, patterns, emotions, needs, and intentions that shape the way you relate.
You don't need to arrive knowing what your Pact should be.
The workshop is designed to help you discover what is underneath the pattern.

Between Monday & Wednesday
Ana will review your reflections and create a first version of your Personal Pact or CouplePact®, based on what emerged during the workshop.
You'll have a day to let the experience settle.

PART 2 — Wednesday: Make it yours
You'll have a private 20-minute session with Ana, either individually or as a couple.
We'll look at the Pact together, challenge it, and adapt it until it feels meaningful, realistic, and genuinely yours.
You'll leave with something you can take into your relationship — not another conversation about what you should do, but a shared reminder of how you want to show up.

Who is this for?
Couples who want to improve a recurring pattern or intentionally strengthen the way they relate.
Individuals in relationships who want to reflect on their own patterns and create a Personal Pact for how they want to show up.

You don't need to be experiencing serious relationship problems.
This is for anyone who thinks:
“We could probably do this better.”

What will you gain?
You'll leave with:

• A clearer understanding of a relationship pattern you want to change.
• New insight into what may be underneath it.
• A Personal or CouplePact® created around your specific situation.
• A memorable way to bring that intention back into everyday life.
• A practical starting point for changing how you show up with each other.

Because the goal isn't to never fall into an old pattern.
It's to know what you want to do the next time you do.
Come as a couple or come on your own.
